Looking to buy a hydraulic squeeze chute.. hoping for brand new but budget is limited. can anyone share their favorite? also want something that's pretty reliable.. does silencer offer more than 1 year warranty?

You need a hydraulic chute and you mention that budget is limited and bring up silencer chutes in the same paragraph. I would love to be on a budget so limited that I could afford a silencer. Powder River makes a decent hydraulic for about half what a silencer costs. I am sure there are others. If you can afford it and run lots of cattle a silencer is the way to go. But last I heard they run about $18,000.
